Although highly purified preparations of Mg2+-dependent phosphoseryl protein phosphatase (also designated phosphatase IA or phosphatase 2C) dephosphorylated phosphotyrosyl histone, the activity has been resolved from phosphatase IA by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 9.5. This novel phosphotyrosyl-specific protein phosphatase absolutely requires Mg2+ or Mn2+ for activity, is inhibited by Zn2+, vanadate and fluoride, and has an optimal pH of 9.0 and Mr = 50,000. Certain properties of this phosphatase so closely resemble those of phosphatase IA that the two enzymes tend to be copurified through various separation procedures.

Regulation of the asparaginase activity rhythm in L. michotii has previously been shown to be dependent on a reversible phosphorylation process. Asparaginase was isolated as a purified protein complex having self-phosphorylating capacities, which were analyzed. In vivo phosphorylation of asparaginase complex was performed synchronously with the rhythm of asparaginase activity. In vitro self-phosphorylation of asparaginase complex resulted from the activity of an ATP-Mg2+-dependent protein kinase, which phosphorylated protein at threonine residues and was not dependent on cyclic AMP, Ca2+ or calmodulin. Dephosphorylation of this complex was due to a Mg2+-Zn2+-dependent protein phosphatase, molybdate inhibited, the specificity of which, for low-molecular-weight nonprotein phosphoesters, was broad.

The expressed catalytic activity of liver microsomal HMG CoA reductase, the limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, is reversibly diminished by phosphorylation in vitro. In intact hepatocytes the expressed activity of HMG CoA reductase is enhanced by incubation of cells with insulin, and diminished by treatment with glucagon or with mevalonate. In the latter situations the level of total reductase activity falls following initial inactivation (phosphorylation) of the enzyme. This observation suggested that the phosphorylated form of HMG CoA reductase is more sensitive to proteolysis. HMG CoA reductase is a 97,000 dalton (97 K) integral protein of the endoplasmic reticulum with a cytosolic domain that includes the catalytic site and serine residues that may be reversibly phosphorylated. In vitro the Ca2+-activated proteolytic enzyme, calpain, generates two catalytically-active fragments: a membrane bound 62 K and a soluble 53 K form of the enzyme which are quantified by specific immunoblot procedures. Cleavage of the native 97 K HMG CoA reductase is enhanced by pretreatment (inactivation) of microsomes with ATP (Mg2+) and liver reductase kinase compared to microsomes pretreated with protein phosphatase. This is reflected in a loss of 97 K reductase and an increase in the soluble 53 K form of the enzyme. Degradation of HMG CoA reductase in hepatocytes is partially blocked by lysosomotropic agents and insulin. A steady state model for the turnover of proteins subject to reversible phosphorylation has been developed which recognizes fractional degradative rate constants for the phosphorylated and dephosphorylated species.

The major Mn2+-activated phosphoprotein phosphatase of the human erythrocyte has been purified to homogeneity from the cell hemolysate. It is sensitive to both inhibitors 1 and 2 of rabbit skeletal muscle, preferentially dephosphorylates the beta subunit of the phosphorylase kinase, and dephosphorylates a broad range of substrates including phosphorylase a, p-nitro-phenyl phosphate, phosphocasein, the regulatory subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, and both spectrin (Km = 10 microM) and pyruvate kinase (Km = 18 microM) purified from the human erythrocyte. The purified enzyme is stimulated by Mn2+ and to a lesser extent by higher concentrations of Mg2+. The purification procedure was selected to avoid any change in molecular weight, hence subunit composition, between the crude and purified enzyme. Maintenance of the original structure is demonstrated by non-denaturing gel electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography. Gel filtration of the purified holoenzyme shows a single active component with a Stokes radius of 58 A at a molecular weight position of 180,000. Sedimentation velocity in a glycerol gradient gives a value of 6.1 for S20, w. Together these data indicate a molecular weight of about 135,000. Two bands of equal intensity appear on sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis at molecular weights of 61,700 and 36,300, suggesting a subunit composition of two 36,000 and one 62,000 subunits. The 36-kDa catalytic subunit can be isolated by freezing and thawing the holoenzyme or by hydrophobic chromatography of the holoenzyme. The catalytic subunit shows unchanged substrate and inhibitor specificity but altered metal ion activation.

Phosphorylation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from yeast is accompanied by a 50% decrease in the catalytic activity (Pohlig, G. and Holzer, H. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 13818-13823). Using reactivation of phoshorylated fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase as assay, a protein phosphatase was about 2,000-fold purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Upon incubation with phosphorylated fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase the purified protein phosphatase not only reverses the 50% inactivation caused by phosphorylation, but also the previously observed change in the pH optimum and in the ratio of activity with Mg2+ or Mn2+. The phosphatase is strongly inhibited by heparin and fluoride. L-Carnitine, orthophosphate, pyrophosphate, and succinate inhibit to 50% at concentrations from 1 to 10 mM. The molecular mass of the native phosphatase was found to be 180,000 Da. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis suggested four subunits with a molecular mass of 45,000 Da each. Half-maximal activity was observed with 5 mM Mg2+ or Mn2+, the pH optimum of activity was found at pH 7. Using polyclonal antibodies, disappearance of 32P-labeled fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and concomitant liberation of the expected amount of inorganic [32P] phosphate was demonstrated.

The regulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase was studied in mouse uterine epithelium. The enzyme was rapidly inactivated during incubation with ATP/Mg2+ in vitro, and could be re-activated by incubation with partially purified rat liver phosphoprotein phosphatase. Enzyme activity was rapidly inhibited by mevalonate injection in vivo to approx. 30% of control. The percentage of total enzyme active in vivo was measured by inclusion of NaF in the isolation buffers. The percentage of enzyme active in vivo 18 h after stimulation by oestrogens remained at approx. 25% after inhibition of activity by mevalonate injection, cholesterol feeding or progesterone pretreatment. However, 9 h after oestrogen stimulation, cholesterol feeding inhibited enzyme activity to 57% of control, 94% of which was in the active form. We conclude that, although all components for a reversible phosphorylative regulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase activity are present in uterine epithelial cells, a role in the rapid changes in epithelial enzyme activity has not been demonstrated.

The dephosphorylation of the modulator subunit is an essential step in the kinase FA-mediated activation of the ATP,Mg-dependent protein phosphatase. Mg2+ is implicated in this autocatalytic dephosphorylation which is not effected by the addition of phosphoinhibitor-1. Dephosphorylation of free modulator by the catalytic subunit is also largely Mg2+-dependent but can be abolished by phosphoinhibitor-1 in concentrations comparable to the amount of modulator used as substrate (micromolar). The phosphorylase phosphatase activity of the catalytic subunit is inhibited by nanomolar concentrations of phosphoinhibitor-1 and is completely independent of divalent cations.

Rat stimulated heavy gastric membranes enriched with (H+-K+)-ATPase, a marker for the apical membrane of the parietal cell, displayed a 32P-histone-dephosphorylating activity which appeared to be physically copurified with, but functionally independent of, the ATPase. The protein phosphatase activity was optimal at pH 7.5 and was inhibited by fluoride (50 mM), inorganic phosphate (50 mM), and p-chloromercuribenzoate (0.1 mM), but was insensitive to vanadate (1 mM). The 32P-phosphoproteins in the heavy gastric membranes were also dephosphorylated, apparently by their own membrane-bound phosphatase in the presence of Mg2+ at millimolar concentrations, which is likely to enhance membrane-membrane interaction. Heavy gastric membrane vesicles incubated with Mg2+ (2 mM) exhibited no alterations in K+-dependent ATP-hydrolyzing activity, Cl permeability, and protein and lipid compositions, but irreversibly lost the ATP, K+-dependent H+-pumping activity. Since valinomycin, a K+-specific ionophore, restored the intravesicular acidifying activity and an inhibitor of the protein phosphatase, inorganic phosphate, largely blocked the Mg2+-induced change in the membrane transport function, it is reasonable to propose that the phosphatase action on certain membrane proteins, possibly the putative K+ transporter or regulatory proteins, selectively decreases K+-conductance in the apical membranes of gastric parietal cells.

Both temperature-stable and temperature-labile testicular cholesteryl ester hydrolases are shown to be regulated by an endogenous cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity. The temperature-stable form (Mr = 28,000) was activated 3-fold by the endogenous kinase. This activation was completely blocked by protein kinase inhibitor. Following purification by high performance gel permeation chromatography, the temperature-stable form could also be activated 2-fold by bovine heart protein kinase, type I. The partially purified endogenous protein kinase, type I, which was completely separated from hydrolase activity by ion exchange chromatography, increased hydrolase activity 2-fold in the presence of optimal concentrations of cAMP, ATP, and Mg2+. Cholesteryl ester hydrolase activity could be stabilized indefinitely at -10 degrees C with the addition of 0.1 mM thioglycolate, but not by other thiol reagents. In contrast, the endogenous protein kinase activity was lost from 104,000 X g supernatants after 14 days. However, the property of activation could be restored by addition of bovine heart protein kinase. The temperature-labile hydrolase (Mr = 72,000) could be totally inactivated by a Mg2+-dependent, fluoride-sensitive cytosolic factor and reactivated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These observations strongly suggest that the inactivating factor is a phosphoprotein phosphatase.

1. The basal, Ca2+-dependent and Mg2+-dependent thiophosphorylation of malignant hyperpyrexia-susceptible (MHS) porcine skeletal muscle was investigated. 2. Seven major proteins of Mr 100,000-11,000 were substrates for thiophosphorylation. 3. Sodium molybdate significantly elevated all levels of thiophosphorylation in control sarcoplasmic reticulum, but did not effect the Ca2+-dependent thiophosphorylation of MHS samples. 4. These results suggest that MHS sarcoplasmic reticulum may have altered sensitivity to protein phosphatase inhibition.
